Members of the Australian Federal Police under the PNG-Australian Policing Partnership (PNG- APP) have presented copies of the Criminal Law and Practices of Papua New Guinea to Lae Metropolitan Superintendent Anthony Wagambie Jnr on Wednesday.
Wagambie, when commending the AFP personnel said the documents would be used by the Prosecutors in Lae to assist with the conduct of cases in the District Court.
The books provided a ready reference to Case law, Criminal Code Act, and Criminal Procedure Act during trials and hearings and will allow prosecutors to provide qualified and accurate response to questions in court.
Wagambie said the provisions of the book follow on from the introduction of a computerized prosecution management system for the tracking of cases through the courts by the Prosecutors.
